Working in groups, young disabled people in the South East are establishing partnerships with young disabled people in other countries to identify themes for campaigns that can be disseminated through media, business and campaign organisations. These campaigns will have a lasting impact on opportunities for and attitudes towards young disabled people in the South East and around the world.
Campaign! is engaging at least 240 young people between now at 2012. Campaign! is also supported by Parliamentary Outreach at the Houses of Parliament. Parliamentary Outreach works to promote the role, relevance and function of Parliament in people's lives today.
Campaign! is delivered by Creative Junction and is a distinct Accentuate project but is also part of another initiative called Create, Compete and Collaborate (CCC). This is a groundbreaking ambition, which aims to ensure that:
CCC will use the inspiration of the 2012 London Games to increase the opportunities for every young person in the region to engage with their peers, internationally, and leave a legacy of young people with broadened horizons, new skills, and enhanced global awareness and connectedness.
The initiative seeks to promote the Olympic values of ‘excellence, respect and friendship’, to broaden the international outlook of young people in the region and to encourage in their development the qualities of openness, understanding, enquiry, equality and cooperation.
Accentuate projects have been collecting examples of how their work is having an impact. Whether this is the personal experience of an individual, or the influence Accentuate projects have had on organisations. Click the link to view the case studies.
